not_o too_o flatter_v ourselves_o when_o as_o the_o lord_n our_o god_n shall_v visit_v we_o with_o any_o little_a affliction_n that_o we_o think_v too_o have_v do_v even_o sufficient_o if_o we_o call_v upon_o he_o but_o if_o we_o shall_v have_v do_v so_o a_o hundred_o thousand_o time_n more_o yet_o that_o we_o must_v not_o give_v over_o pray_v and_o call_v upon_o he_o and_o herein_o may_v be_v see_v the_o hypocritical_a deal_n of_o man_n for_o they_o be_v so_o womannishe_o mind_v and_o tender_a heart_a that_o they_o think_v themselves_o too_o have_v wrought_v a_o million_o of_o miracle_n when_o as_o they_o have_v sustain_v never_o so_o little_a adversity_n no_o not_o worth_a the_o value_n of_o a_o hour_n moreover_o if_o they_o be_v over_o load_v with_o any_o adversity_n they_o may_v be_v bold_a as_o they_o think_v clear_o too_o forget_v both_o god_n and_o his_o word_n but_o our_o good_a god_n will_v not_o have_v we_o to_o proceed_v in_o this_o sort_n for_o he_o set_v before_o we_o here_o the_o example_n of_o david_n for_o our_o instruction_n but_o yet_o he_o have_v set_v it_o forth_o untoo_o we_o for_o this_o end_n and_o purpose_n that_o we_o shall_v not_o cease_v to_o continue_v too_o call_v upon_o he_o in_o our_o adversity_n yea_o be_v our_o affliction_n never_o so_o great_a &_o last_v never_o so_o long_o yet_o that_o we_o shall_v notwithstanding_o continual_o persevere_v in_o prayer_n to_o be_v short_a let_v we_o understande_v that_o david_n make_v this_o prayer_n at_o such_o time_n as_o he_o think_v not_o too_o have_v live_v any_o long_a but_o that_o he_o be_v as_o a_o dead_a man_n when_o he_o say_v o_o quicken_v i_o moreover_o we_o may_v see_v that_o his_o constancy_n be_v not_o like_o a_o puff_v of_o wind_n but_o that_o he_o persevere_v therein_o for_o although_o his_o trouble_n contain_v that_o he_o be_v as_o it_o be_v in_o a_o very_a deep_a pit_n whereout_o he_o be_v not_o able_a too_o get_v yet_o cease_v he_o never_o but_o to_o trust_v that_o god_n will_v deliver_v he_o out_o of_o it_o and_o there_o upon_o call_v on_o he_o and_o receive_v great_a courage_n namely_o he_o desire_v too_o be_v quicken_v according_a to_o the_o love_a kindness_n of_o god_n for_o we_o must_v also_o be_v at_o that_o point_n if_o we_o will_v be_v hear_v to_o know_v that_o god_n be_v bind_v untoo_o we_o of_o his_o mere_a grace_n and_o favour_n and_o that_o we_o also_o must_v have_v recourse_n unto_o he_o if_o we_o will_v have_v he_o too_o accomplish_v his_o promise_n unto_o us._n man_n must_v not_o then_o abuse_v themselves_o too_o look_v untoo_o their_o own_o doing_n ne_o yet_o too_o have_v regard_n untoo_o worldly_a mean_n but_o that_o they_o seek_v for_o the_o same_o in_o god_n and_o in_o his_o mere_a goodness_n and_o free_a gift_n for_o the_o which_o he_o will_v hear_v they_o and_o receive_v they_o also_o untoo_o himself_o in_o the_o end_n david_n protest_v that_o he_o will_v keep_v the_o testimony_n of_o the_o mouth_n of_o god_n now_o let_v we_o not_o understand_v hereby_o that_o he_o have_v not_o keep_v they_o before_o for_o we_o have_v see_v the_o clean_a contrary_n but_o this_o be_v to_o signify_v that_o see_v in_o the_o midst_n of_o the_o affliction_n which_o i_o have_v sustain_v thou_o have_v always_o give_v i_o the_o grace_n to_o persevere_v in_o faith_n &_o that_o i_o have_v continual_o upon_o thou_o satan_n have_v not_o shake_v i_o to_o cause_v i_o too_o do_v wicked_o since_o then_o o_o lord_n thou_o haste_v give_v i_o such_o constancy_n at_o the_o time_n that_o thou_o be_v estrange_v from_o i_o by_o a_o more_o strong_a reason_n when_o thou_o shall_v be_v my_o aid_n and_o succour_n &_o shall_v restore_v i_o i_o shall_v have_v a_o far_o great_a constancy_n to_o keep_v the_o testimony_n of_o thy_o mouth_n see_v then_o how_o that_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o all_o our_o affliction_n we_o must_v glorify_v god_n not_o doubt_v of_o his_o faithful_a deal_n that_o he_o will_v perform_v whatsoever_o he_o have_v promise_v have_v pity_n on_o we_o in_o the_o end_n and_o confirm_v we_o more_o and_o more_o too_o keep_v the_o testimony_n of_o his_o mouth_n know_v that_o he_o will_v continue_v to_o do_v that_o unto_o we_o which_o he_o have_v already_o once_o show_v us._n and_o according_a to_o this_o doctrine_n let_v we_o prostrate_v ourselves_o in_o the_o presence_n of_o our_o good_a god_n in_o acknowledge_v our_o offence_n beseech_v he_o that_o it_o will_v please_v he_o to_o open_v our_o eye_n better_a that_o we_o may_v behold_v the_o power_n and_o virtue_n of_o his_o word_n and_o thereon_o to_o stay_v we_o in_o bereave_v we_o of_o all_o the_o lightness_n and_o inconstancy_n which_o may_v turn_v we_o away_o from_o it_o desire_v he_o also_o not_o to_o suffer_v we_o too_o wander_v this_o way_n and_o that_o way_n as_o common_o we_o be_v wont_a to_o turn_v we_o from_o the_o right_a way_n as_o we_o be_v by_o nature_n overmuch_o incline_v thereto_o but_o be_v full_o resolve_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o vain_a which_o he_o have_v declare_v unto_o we_o that_o he_o will_v assist_v we_o in_o all_o our_o necessity_n which_o we_o shall_v crave_v of_o he_o in_o true_a faith_n yea_o not_o only_o in_o our_o small_a and_o mean_a affliction_n but_o even_o when_o as_o he_o think_v we_o shall_v be_v utter_o overthrow_v know_v that_o he_o will_v accomplish_v for_o our_o profit_n &_o health_n whatsoever_o we_o may_v hope_v after_o and_o behold_v with_o the_o eye_n of_o faith_n let_v we_o beseech_v he_o that_o he_o will_v not_o only_o grant_v we_o this_o grace_n but_o also_o unto_o all_o people_n and_o nation_n of_o the_o earth_n etc._n etc._n the_o twelve_o sermon_n upon_o the_o hundred_o and_o nineteenth_o psalm_n lamed_n o_o lord_n thy_o word_n endure_v for_o ever_o in_o heaven_n thy_o truth_n be_v from_o one_o generation_n to_o another_o thou_o haste_v lay_v the_o foundation_n of_o the_o earth_n and_o it_o abide_v they_o continue_v even_o to_o this_o day_n according_a too_o

thy_o testimony_n i_o have_v see_v a_o end_n of_o all_o perfection_n but_o thy_o commandment_n be_v exceed_o large_a we_o see_v how_o changeable_a man_n be_v it_o be_v very_o true_a that_o when_o we_o shall_v talk_v of_o the_o shadow_n we_o may_v say_v that_o it_o remoove_v and_o change_v every_o minute_n of_o a_o hour_n so_o that_o it_o rest_v not_o but_o if_o we_o look_v well_o and_o thorowlye_o search_v out_o that_o which_o be_v in_o the_o mind_n of_o man_n we_o shall_v see_v there_o a_o great_a deal_n more_o vanity_n and_o change_n then_o be_v too_o be_v see_v in_o the_o very_a shadow_n and_o that_o which_o be_v more_o david_n say_v in_o a_o other_o place_n that_o if_o man_n be_v lay_v in_o one_o school_n &_o vanity_n in_o a_o other_o that_o vanity_n which_o be_v nothing_o will_v way_n down_o man_n great_o and_o we_o shall_v not_o need_v too_o stand_v long_o dispute_v of_o this_o for_o every_o man_n by_o his_o own_o experience_n can_v testify_v what_o it_o be_v and_o what_o it_o can_v do_v albeit_o there_o be_v nothing_o write_v nor_o yet_o any_o thing_n thereof_o contain_v in_o the_o scripture_n what_o rest_v there_o then_o for_o we_o to_o do_v forsooth_o we_o must_v seek_v for_o our_o constancy_n else_o where_o then_o in_o ourselves_o now_o god_n give_v we_o a_o very_a good_a mean_a if_o we_o will_v take_v it_o which_o be_v to_o build_v and_o settle_v ourselves_o upon_o his_o word_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v 40.8_o isai_n 40.8_o that_o the_o prophet_n esaiah_n say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n endure_v for_o ever_o he_o have_v speak_v before_o of_o the_o frailty_n and_o fickleness_n of_o man_n as_o that_o nothing_o can_v be_v more_o &_o although_o it_o may_v seem_v that_o there_o be_v some_o strength_n in_o they_o it_o be_v yet_o incontinent_a clean_a parch_a and_o dry_v up_o that_o it_o vanish_v away_o into_o less_o than_o nothing_o but_o he_o conclude_v and_o say_v that_o the_o word_n of_o god_n abide_v for_o ever_o so_o then_o see_v the_o mean_a how_o that_o man_n although_o they_o be_v transitory_a and_o have_v constancy_n at_o all_o in_o they_o shall_v notwithstanding_o have_v a_o perfect_a constancy_n and_o sure_a estate_n to_o wit_n when_o as_o they_o shall_v stay_v themselves_o upon_o the_o truth_n of_o god_n and_o his_o word_n

what_o end_n thy_o belief_n serve_v when_o then_o we_o shall_v have_v our_o eye_n so_o fix_v upon_o god_n who_o have_v arm_v we_o with_o his_o infallible_a truth_n we_o may_v be_v able_a too_o withstand_v and_o fall_v out_o with_o all_o whatsoever_o that_o lift_v itself_o up_o too_o the_o contrary_a we_o shall_v have_v no_o occasion_n too_o fear_v the_o world_n for_o god_n be_v sufficient_o able_a too_o overcome_v all_o the_o scruple_n and_o grief_n which_o the_o devil_n shall_v raise_v uppe_o against_o us._n and_o thus_o much_o as_o concern_v this_o point_n moreover_o we_o see_v that_o when_o there_o be_v any_o question_n to_o make_v confession_n of_o our_o faith_n it_o can_v be_v that_o man_n shall_v be_v able_a to_o abash_v and_o fear_v we_o with_o all_o their_o power_n and_o might_n as_o at_o this_o day_n we_o see_v when_o as_o they_o will_v glad_o make_v we_o too_o tremble_v what_o i_o beseech_v you_o sir_n will_v they_o say_v you_o be_v but_o even_o a_o handful_n of_o people_n do_v you_o think_v yourselves_o wise_a than_o all_o the_o king_n and_o prince_n of_o the_o world_n you_o see_v that_o all_o the_o world_n be_v against_o this_o doctrine_n which_o you_o hold_v &_o profess_v and_o what_o do_v you_o think_v to_o do_v true_a in_o deed_n that_o at_o the_o first_o sight_n this_o be_v even_o enough_o too_o shake_v we_o yea_o be_v it_o not_o that_o we_o know_v and_o be_v very_o certain_a but_o when_o we_o look_v unto_o god_n than_o all_o this_o gear_n vanish_v intoo_o smoke_n these_o be_v but_o bladder_n pufte_v full_a of_o wind_n and_o the_o jest_n pin_n point_n will_v empty_v they_o in_o very_a deed_n these_o will_v be_v great_a fraybugge_n but_o yet_o it_o will_v all_o prove_v nothing_o behold_v these_o frog_n behold_v these_o pismeres_n yea_o behold_v these_o fly_n and_o gnatte_n for_o they_o be_v all_o no_o better_o than_o very_a vermin_n and_o worm_n when_o as_o they_o shall_v lift_v themselves_o up_o thus_o against_o god_n so_o then_o let_v we_o learn_v yea_o let_v we_o learn_v to_o stay_v ourselves_o so_o upon_o god_n as_o that_o when_o we_o shall_v be_v call_v too_o make_v confession_n of_o our_o faith_n since_o it_o be_v so_o that_o it_o be_v god_n which_o have_v speak_v let_v all_o the_o creature_n in_o the_o world_n be_v nothing_o to_o we_o ward_n let_v we_o not_o be_v ashamed_a and_o let_v nothing_o hinder_v and_o stop_v we_o from_o maintain_v of_o his_o word_n in_o the_o end_n david_n conclude_v and_o say_v my_o hand_n also_o will_v i_o lift_v up_o unto_o thy_o commandment_n which_o i_o have_v love_v and_o my_o study_n shall_v be_v in_o thy_o statute_n these_o two_o verse_n here_o need_v no_o long_a declaration_n for_o we_o have_v already_o have_v the_o same_o sentence_n and_o yet_o notwithstanding_o david_n show_v we_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o to_o think_v of_o this_o doctrine_n for_o a_o time_n but_o we_o must_v all_o the_o course_n of_o our_o life_n profit_v ourselves_o therein_o more_o and_o more_o loe_o here_o the_o principal_a point_n which_o we_o have_v to_o note_v that_o we_o must_v take_v pleasure_n in_o the_o commandment_n of_o god_n which_o we_o have_v love_v to_o wit_n that_o we_o ought_v to_o learn_v to_o conceive_v such_o a_o affection_n and_o desire_v to_o follow_v the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o to_o stick_v thereto_o as_o that_o we_o shall_v be_v full_o resolve_v to_o say_v in_o very_a deed_n this_o be_v the_o most_o sweet_a and_o amiable_a thing_n that_o possible_o can_v be_v to_o subject_v ourselves_o under_o the_o yoke_n of_o our_o god_n and_o to_o bear_v it_o and_o therefore_o we_o must_v draw_v in_o it_o and_o obey_v he_o have_v we_o do_v this_o we_o must_v then_o in_o stead_n of_o a_o number_n of_o foolish_a vanity_n whereunto_o we_o be_v incline_v yea_o and_o in_o place_n of_o the_o wicked_a affection_n and_o allurement_n of_o satan_n learn_v to_o take_v pleasure_n in_o the_o word_n of_o god_n so_o that_o we_o may_v protest_v in_o truth_n after_o the_o example_n of_o david_n that_o they_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o god_n which_o we_o have_v love_v moreover_o let_v we_o mark_v well_o this_o sentence_n when_o he_o say_v my_o hand_n also_o will_v i_o lift_v up_o unto_o thy_o commandment_n for_o this_o be_v as_o much_o as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v o_o lord_n i_o will_v not_o only_o protest_v with_o my_o mouth_n that_o i_o love_v thy_o word_n but_o i_o will_v also_o lift_v up_o my_o hand_n yea_o as_o we_o common_o say_v i_o will_v lift_v up_o my_o hand_n to_o the_o caky_a god_n by_o this_o he_o let_v we_o to_o understande_v that_o if_o we_o will_v serve_v god_n as_o become_v we_o that_o it_o be_v not_o enough_o for_o we_o to_o witness_v the_o truth_n of_o god_n with_o our_o mouth_n but_o we_o must_v also_o show_v by_o our_o good_a and_o godly_a life_n that_o which_o we_o protest_v with_o our_o mouth_n and_o that_o there_o be_v a_o accord_n and_o sweet_a harmony_n between_o the_o one_o and_o the_o other_o true_a it_o be_v we_o shall_v find_v some_o doubt_n when_o as_o there_o shall_v be_v any_o question_n of_o follow_v god_n but_o this_o sentence_n be_v to_o be_v note_v when_o he_o say_v i_o will_v lift_v up_o my_o hand_n and_o to_o know_v that_o when_o god_n shall_v see_v that_o it_o shall_v surpass_v our_o force_n and_o strength_n let_v we_o pray_v unto_o he_o to_o grant_v we_o that_o grace_n that_o we_o may_v lift_v up_o our_o hand_n unto_o his_o commandment_n to_o wit_n so_o high_a as_o we_o can_v possible_o to_o the_o end_n we_o may_v take_v hold_n of_o his_o grace_n and_o virtue_n better_a
